QUIET HOUR

nephilim56

In a quiet hour
Memorys fine line
In early hours
Thoughts sublime.

I remember your body
A sweet tender touch
Did we love too brightly
Was it too much ?

Like a rainbow that swept
Across a black sky
Burning intensely
A glistening tear in the eye.

Now that I sit
A glass in my hand
Unable to sleep
Times falling sand.

I light another cigarette
The glass to my lips
Ruby red liquid
Like the lips that I kissed.

    A definate feeling of nostalgia but more a longing for the past and what has been lost. A sweet sadness in reflection. Very nicely done

    I like the mention of the rainbow in this writing . Nice and interesting writing

    For me it was โ€œglass to lipsโ€ a real โ€˜humdingerโ€™ of an image from personal experience and from observation of others. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ•Š

        Looking back with a gentle sadness at what has gone, beautifully written, enjoyed the read.
